Inconvenient Biblical Teaching - If There's A Will, There's A Plan

Inconvenient Biblical Teaching - If There's A Will, There's A Plan

- March 29, 2022

At some point in our life we will question the things we believe in.

If we do not believe in God or on the fence if we do or not, then there will come a moment in time when we are alone in our own thoughts, pondering about this.

There will come a time when we will stop and ask ourself, is there really a God? What if there really is One? How will I know? How can I be sure? Can I? Will I? Has it already been revealed? Do I want to know? Why not?

In the same way, when we do believe there is a God, there will also come a time, we can call as our personal crisis of faith. This is a moment when we stop everything, and we question our belief system.

Both are great opportunities.

It means we aren't just irrational beings. It shows we aren't mere animals. It means we are above and beyond wild beasts, monkeys, primates and all of the most "intelligent" animals out there -- dolphins, dogs, elephants, etc.

We are humans.

This will be a series within a series. If you are in such a moment in time, let us journey together.

The Shepherd and His Flock

“I tell you the truth, the man who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. The man who enters by the gate is the shepherd of his sheep. The watchman opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” Jesus used this figure of speech, but they did not understand what he was telling them.

Therefore Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep. All who ever came before me were thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. He will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full."

John 10 (NIV 84)

Disclaimer

If you have issues with Hillsong or Bethel or Elevation or any of the so-called heretical churches or preachers, we are not condoning any false teachings. There is always something we can find wrong in all churches, including the one we call ours. But there is one faith, there is one baptism, there is One God, there is One Spirit and One Savior, Jesus Christ. If we agree on all these then let's all work together for good. The Lord is coming back. Let us stop wasting time with nitpicking, criticizing other believers because they wear strange clothes or sing weird songs, or read a version of the bible we don't, or speak in tongues or do or believe something which we don't, instead let us do what God has really called us to do. God has called each one of us to do something. Let's do that.
